I Fought the Law<\/em> is set to be one of the most talked about dramas on TV this Autumn. Based on the true story of Ann Ming<\/a>, a mum who fought to get the 800-year-old Double Jeopardy law overturned following the murder of her daughter, Julie Hogg, it\u2019s hard-hitting, moving and unmissable.<\/p>\n

Sheridan Smith sat down with Woman<\/em> for the most recent issue, to talk about taking on the most challenging roles in her career as she stepped into Ann\u2019s shoes to tell her story.<\/p>\n
